The present invention relates to the use of a silicone surfactant of alkyl dimethicone copolyol type of formula: 
                         
in which:
 
PE=(—C 2 H 4 O) x (—C 3 H 6 O) y —H,
 
x=0 to 50,
 
y=0 to 30, x and y not simultaneously being 0,
 
o=1 to 100,
 
m=1 to 40,
 
n=1 to 200,
 
p=1 to 17 and

in the preparation of a solid water-in-oil emulsion comprising an aqueous phase emulsified by the said surfactant in a fatty phase comprising at least one oil and at least one wax.
 
     The invention also relates to a solid emulsion of water-in-oil type, in particular a transfer-free foundation, such as the emulsion defined above.

The present invention relates to the use of a silicone surfactant of the alkyl dimethicone copolyol type in the preparation of solid cosmetic water-in-oil emulsions and to solid cosmetic water-in-oil emulsions, in particular foundations.

Water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions are commonly used in the cosmetics field as they make it possible to form a film at the surface of the skin which prevents transepidermal water loss and protects the skin from external attacks.

In view of the requirements of consumers with regard to emulsions of this type, which must simultaneously have a good cosmetic quality, which is reflected in terms of appearance, of texture, of ease of application and of good protective properties, good hold and good resistance to sweat and to sebum, it is highly advantageous to be able to obtain emulsions exhibiting all these properties without exhibiting the disadvantages of conventional W/O emulsions.

Solid emulsions of the foundation type generally comprise fatty substances, such as solid waxes and oils, water and a particulate phase generally composed of fillers and pigments.

However, these compositions, when they are applied to the skin, exhibit the disadvantage of transferring, that is to say of being at least partly deposited, while leaving a trace, on certain substrates with which they can be brought into contact, in particular an item of clothing or the skin. This results in mediocre persistence of the film on the skin, requiring the regular renewal of the application of the foundation composition.

Another disadvantage of the compositions of the prior art is poor dispersion of the pigments, resulting in an emulsion which is not homogeneous.

Patent Application JP-A-03261707 discloses solid cosmetic compositions of the water-in-oil emulsion type comprising silicone oils, solid waxes and water which also comprise spherical powders.

The emulsifiers used can be organopolysiloxanes modified by polyoxyalkylenes, such as dimethicone copolyols.

The solid emulsions obtained, namely foundations, are nonhomogeneous and coarse and have a microscopic appearance which does not conform and a macroscopic appearance which does not conform, and the pigments are not well dispersed.

The aim of the present invention is to overcome these disadvantages and the invention provides a solid homogeneous W/O emulsion, in which the pigments, dyes and oils are well dispersed, which is soft, which has good slip, which has very good hold and which has good persistence on the skin.

The Applicant Company has discovered, surprisingly and unexpectedly, that it is possible, by using a specific silicone surfactant of the alkyl dimethicone copolyol type, in combination with at least one oil and at least one wax, to obtain a solid water-in-oil emulsion which exhibits the desired characteristics and which also exhibits the advantage of not transferring.

The subject-matter of the invention is therefore the use of a silicone surfactant of the alkyl dimethicone copolyol type, the formula of which is shown hereinbelow, in the preparation of solid emulsions of the water-in-oil type comprising an aqueous phase emulsified by the said surfactant in a fatty phase comprising at least one oil and at least one wax.

Another subject-matter of the invention is a solid cosmetic water-in-oil emulsion, characterized in that it comprises an aqueous phase emulsified, using a silicone surfactant of the alkyl dimethicone copolyol type with the formula shown hereinbelow, in a fatty phase comprising at least one oil and at least one wax.

Another subject-matter of the invention is a process for making up the skin and/or scalp, characterized in that a solid emulsion as defined above is applied to the skin and/or to the scalp.

The Applicant Company has found that the solid emulsion according to the invention is applied and is spread easily in a homogeneous way and exhibits good moisturizing properties and good cosmetic properties since it is soft and has good slip. The film obtained also exhibits a light texture and remains comfortable to wear throughout the day.

Furthermore, the emulsion applied to the skin exhibits the advantage of not migrating into the folds of the skin and/or the wrinkles of the face.

The emulsion according to the invention exhibits a homogeneous texture. Additives can be added to the emulsion according to the invention while retaining a stable emulsion. The emulsion according to the invention is therefore compatible with a large number of cosmetic adjuvants.

The silicone surfactant of the alkyl dimethicone copolyol type used according to the invention has the formula:

in which: PE=(—C₂H₄O)_(x)(—C₃H₆O)_(y)—H, x=0 to 50, y=0 to 30, x and y not simultaneously being 0, o=1 to 100, m=1 to 40, n=1 to 200, p=1 to 17 and q=1 to 5, and preferably, o=1 to 25, m=1 to 10, n=1 to 100.
